I'm trying to figure out an unsavory detail where I have a rather large embed plate located in a face of a concrete beam immediately adjacent to top-embedded anchor bolt. The drawing is to scale (3/4" headed studs on 5/8" plate, 7-5/8"X26"D concrete beams, and 1" dia, anchor bolt with dbl nut (Simpson PAB#). The AB will fall on one side of the embed, with minimal spacing between the vertical row of studs. Can anyone recommend a conservative method to analyze this situation? (I'm not sure simply reducing the shear cross section by the projected steel area is an applicable method, and really don't want to have to invest into a FEM package)
